sit will take about l 800 men stretched
IN line on both sides of Third street,
from Sibley to Wabasha," said Presi-
dent Lewis H. Maxfield to the repre-
sentativeS of the Carnival clubs at the
Ryan last evening, Ito make an impos-
Ing display on the occasion of
President Cleveland'S visit, two
weeks from tonight. Thus far
the indications are that the turnout of
uniformed clubs will be the feature of
the reception, and l am informed that
tons desire to participate in this
demonstration. 1t will be some
thing novel, for no other city in
this country can at a given notice
concentrate so many club men. And
we want enthusiasm on the subject. Let
each man constitute himself a commit
tee of one to circulate among his friends
and fellow members and induce them to
swell the club ranks, and, mark
my words for it. President and
Mrs. Cleveland will have some
thing to talk about as long as they
live concerning the parade i'll their
honor at st. Paul.
As an evidence of the enthusiasm at

clubs on this subject, every chair at the
headquarters last evening was occupied
by the representatives of the various or
CARNATIONS prepared to give data to the
reception committee. A roll call was
ordered, and responses were made by
captains, secretaries and other author
lied persons of the following:
st. George lao men would turn out, Pho
neer Press $50, Columbia 300 Nushka 75,
Northern Pacific $50, Aurora 40, University
Avenue 100, Seven Corners so, Bunker Hill

So Ryan Toboggan club so, Little Crows %;
Esquimaux 30, Windsor 100, and ST. Anthony
Hill 800.
LADIES ARE WELCOME.
One of the captains inquired if it was
proposed to have ladies take part.
To this ID. a. MOntfort replied that
they wanted everybody that had uni
form to be present in line the evening of
the 10th of October, and if the ladies
wished to do so they would be cordially
welcomed. But it was doubtful if floats
for their accommodation could
be prepared in time. Still,
the line of march would not be more
than mile, and, with the paramount
Idea of an imposing demonstration on
the sidewalks, they would certainly be
decided acquisition to the ranks. Incl
dentally it was stated that the general
committee on arrangements would have
the illuminating power greater than it
was during Fair week, and that it would
not be necessary for the clubs to provide
their members with torches. The in
tentiOn was to make this a popular and
long to be remembered Grafton to the
president of the United States, and with
this end in view all the carnival clubs
of the adjacent cities, Minneapolis, Still
water, NOrthfeld and the rest, would be
united to participate and special rates
would be made with the various rail
road companies to effect such a result.
Already the management Of the Omaha
road had Signified its willingness to help
by selling round trip tickets for the
price one way, and satisfactory arrange
ments would, be completed this week
with the other lines entering the state
capital. 1t would certainly not be amiss
for the clubs to display their banners.
for these would add to the attractions
of the occasion, and help to set Off
the brilliant uniforms of the clubs.
President und Mrs. Cleveland would be
i'll an open carriage, which would pass
through the lines, thus allowing all the
participants in the parade an oppor-
tunity to see the distinguished guests.
and the only thing that the gentlemen
in charge of the affair wanted was an
assurance that the carnival clubs
HAD TAKEN HOLD
of the matter with their characteristic
energy. If it was found that there
would not be so large representation
as desired, the committee should know
in time in order to be able to substitute
some other feature. This brought
dozen captains to their feet with the
declaration that their clubs would have
all they had promised in uniform when
the parade took place, and Capt. Bean
raised a laugh with the announcement.
Seven Corners fifty don't mean forty
nine" In order that representative OF
other clubs might be present when the
details were being perfected, it was
agreed that another meeting of the
Carnival clubs should be held next
Friday evening at o'clock in the cham
Der of commerce, corner Sixth and Rob-
ert streets. Every member of a tobog-
gaming club in st. Paul and vicinity is
expected to be present, and important
business will be discussed.
